GARME NT-HANGE R.
To all whom it may concern.'
Be it known that l, ADAM K. Bowan-iN, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Greensburg, in the county of VVestmoreland and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and improved Garment- Hanger, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
The invention is designed more particularly to improve that form of garment hangers that consists of a hanger bar adapted to support a coat, skirt or other garment, and a suspension hook, the said hook in the hangers generally made, being lixedly secured in place, which makesl the hangers bulky, and hence inconvenient for packing, etc.
The object of my invention is to provide a hanger having a detachable hook, thus materially economizing space in the packing, shipping and storing of the hangers.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings forming a part of this specification, in which similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the views.
Figure l is a perspective view of a garment hanger embodying my invention; Fig. 2 is a broken sectional end elevation of the form shown in Fig. l; and Figs. 3, l, 5 and (3 are broken end views showing several different forms of the invention, the hanger bars being in section, which figures will be hereinafter specially referred to.
l have illustrated different embodiments of my invention and will particularly describe the same and point out the invention in the claims.
In constructing a garment hanger in accordance with my invention, a hanger bar A of suitable form is provided, this bar in the instance illustrated being of the conventional type found in coat hangers, skirt hangers, etc., and in connection with said bar a hook B is employed, the shank of which is formed with clamping jaws, as hereinafter described.
Referring more particularly to the form shown in Figs. l and 2, the hook is formed of a single length of wire bent on itself, the two thicknesses being given the usual hook form at the upper end, as at ZJ, and the separable shank portions b b2 of the hook are embraced by a sliding ring C. In order to effect a detachable engagement between the base of the hook and the garment bar A, the
Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed October 23, 1907.
Patented Nov. 10, 1908.
Serial No. 398,722.
lower ends of the separable shank portions 722 are bent outward in opposite directions, as at Z13, and then downwardly as at b4, the extreme lower ends f being bent inward toward each other and caused to enter holes a formed in opposite side faces of the bar A. Thus the portions b3 and b4 embrace the hanger bar A at three faces, and the sliding ring C when in the lower position securely holds the hook in engagement with the bar. To detach the hook from the bar it is only necessary to move the ring C to a raised position as in Fig. 2, which permits the shank sections, including the descr'bed bent base thereof, to be separated. In this way the hooks may be neatly and securely wrapped and separately assembled from the bars, while the latter can also be assembled in thel most compact form.
In the form shown in Fig. 3, the shank portions at the base are formed with the same outward bends '(23 as previously described, which overlie and embrace the top surface of the garment bar A, while the side members 7) corresponding to the members 17)* in Figs. l and 2, are extended to a length to reach to the bottom of the bar A', and the lower ends 7)T of each base portion are bent inwardly to embrace the under surface of the bar A, as clearly appears.
In Fig. i one side b4 and its terminal end o correspond with the similar portions in the form shown in Figs. l and 2, while the opposite side of the base of the hook is formed with the bends 5G and 57 shown in Fig. 3. rlhus it will be seen that Fig. t has one side of the base portion of the shank corresponding with Figs. 1 and 2*, while the other side corresponds with Fig. 3, the same clamping ring C and the same top bends b3 being found in this last described construction for clamping the hook to the hanger bar A2.
ln the form shown in Fig. 5, one side of the base portion hasthe described bends b3, o* and o5 as found in Figs. l, 2 and 4:, while the opposite side has the described bend b3, the bend o extending along one side to the bottom of the bar A3 similar to Figs. 3 and 4L, so that this portion o corresponds with one side of Figs. 3 and 4; At the lower end of the member 5G the wire at that side of the hanger bar is bent as at bs to extend across nearly the whole bottom surface of the bar A3; it is then extended downwardly as at b9,
and then upwardly in hook form as at 510, whereby the lower portion may be employed as an auxiliary garment hook.
In the form shown in Fig. 6, the hanger bar A4 is formed with a vertical hole cz, and one transverse hole a as in Figs. 2, 4t and 5, these holes being therefore in lines at about right angles to each other. The hook B in this form has thebase portion of its shank formed as follows: One side has the bends b3, b4 and b5 described in connection with other figures, the terminal end b5 entering the hole a, and the companion shank is extended straight down as at Z911, to enter the vertical hole a. rlhe raising of the clamping ring C with this construction per-l mits the bent side to be moved outward, so
that the member b5 may be disengaged fromv the bar At, whereupon the portion can be withdrawn in a vertical direction.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent,-h
l. A garment hanger, comprising a garment receiving bar, and a detachable suspension device comprising a hook having a shank formed with separable aws, said jaws consisting of members clasping the bar at the top and at the side faces of the bar.
2. A garment hanger having a detachable suspension device comprising a hook having a shank formed with separable aws,
the jaws consisting of members offset from the shank and ranging approximately vertically, to embrace side faces of the hanger, said members having ends projecting toward each other.
3. A garment hanger, comprising a hanger bar for a garment and a suspension hook detachably secured to said bar, the shank of the suspension hook being composed of separable members, and jaws extending in the form of oppositely projecting bends at the formed with a longitudinally-divided shank,
the members of which are bent outward in opposite directions, then forwardly to provide approximately parallel members, and then inwardly, the said shank having a sliding device thereon to hold the divided shank portions in close relation.
A garment hanger, comprising a hanger har for the garment, and a suspension hook formed with a longitudinally divided shank, the members of which are bent outward in opposite directions, then forwardly to provide approximately parallel members, and then inwardly, the said shank having a sliding device thereon to hold the divided shank portions in close relation, the inwardly projecting ends being received in holes formed in the hanger bar.
6. A garment hanger,comprising a hanger bar for receiving a garment, and a detachal le suspension device, the base of which is provided with a pair of members each having portions at approximately right angles to each other, the said suspension device embracing the hanger bar at three exteriorsurfaces.
in testimony whereof I have signed my name to lthis specification in the presencenof two subscribing witnesses.
